The exhaust just arrived in the mail yesterday, it's not on the car yet and wont be for a little bit.

good god.
It's gorgeous though
It'll be loud as sh!t tho
bout time you bought an exhaust for that thing.
I missed this thread before, so I just skimmed through it. So far you have a really cool build. I really like that console you made. The flat black touch looks very factory.
wow tinkles alot has changed since i last met with you up @ skyview congrats it's coming along nicely

Thanks. I have a few "minor" mods that'll be done for spring time as well as gathering parts for a one or two major mods.

Thanks, the flat black does match very well but is a PITA w/o having it cleared. The Gunmetal i redid it in also ties in with the stock color well too, plus i have the added bonus of clear coat.
I do have plans for a few one-off items and features, but i dont want to post about them until they are done. Mainly because im afraid they'll become like every other "plan" in this thread, scrapped.

i love this car more and more that exhaust looks amazing keep it up
Well the exhaust is on and with the colder weather the car has found a new set of balls. I am very happy with the header the guys at RD Fabs made. The sound is tolerable, but it still is one of the loudest 4 bangers in my area.
Incase some of you missed the pics here is the header:
Other than that i have been saving to pick up a x-mas present im giving my car(that i finally picked up yesterday):
The other sides and rear are spoken for. Also dont be shocked if it doesnt make it to the car for a year or so. I either A. have to pick up another vehicle to daily beat on(once the car and college are paid off) or B. move off of this @!#$ dirt road.

Thank you Dave and JBO! 
i am really looking forward to seeing the tuner kit in black.
Trailer Queen corvette wanna-be with 40 coats of wax and powdercoating that soaks in.
me too...
and the extra rear in indigo blue metallic!
Thanks guys im just glad that i finally picked up a kit, but like i said it will most likely be a while before it get installed.
I did get a 2.9" pulley X-mas so that knocked one item off the "get done for springtime" list. Which includes.
Meth
Larger H/E(Im looking for one roughly 36"x7"x2"-3", but cannot find one)
Larger injectors(Im thinking 60s)
Racetronix F-body fuel pump
Tein SSs(Next purchase for the car)
Progress rear sway bar(purchased with the Teins)
Skwirl HPTune
Im also thinking about getting the valve springs i need so i can toss the cams in. I'll make that decision after the Teins.
I am also wanting RD Fabs to take a stab at the following:
Some type of Option B
LS1 TB adapter
A simple intake(not an intake manifold)
I'll be going up there for fitment and funding, just like i did for the header.
After all that is done then it will be time to move onto collecting parts for the spare L61 i have. Even thou i am collecting "show" parts my main focus is "go".

Well i finally have the motivation to attempt to clean my engine bay, but wont have the time until this weekend. But today in the mists of playing phone tag with a potential job and fixing my little brother's Saturn SL2 i managed to get one of my spare cam covers painted. My original idea was the rattle can color changing paint(kinda like Wayder's cav), but i couldnt find any. I'll admit i didnt look THAT hard. I knew i wanted an uncommon color for it, but nothing seemed good enough until i saw "Orange Mist". The paint isnt perfect, but is good enough and it should look great with the stock ignition cover.
And also after 4 months i finally have my spare eco on the engine stand.
Due to financial problems i have no idea when more major mods will take place.
Much better than black grime!
